SUMMARY:Building Web Apps with HTML5: Beyond the Buzzword
DESCRIPTION:Presented by Mike Subelsky (OtherInbox). Modern browsers hav
 e changed web development by offering new, more powerful capabilities, k
 nown by the marketing buzzword "HTML5".  In this tutorial we'll build a 
 sophisticated example that shows you how to take advantage of workers, s
 ockets, canvases, local storage, media embeds, and more. You'll learn ho
 w you can use HTML5 to build newer and better web applications, leaving 
 old hacks behind.

SUMMARY:Rails Best Practices
DESCRIPTION:Presented by Gregg Pollack (Envy Labs), Andrew Smith (Envy L
 abs), Thomas Meeks (Envy Labs), Dray Lacy (Envy Labs), Christopher Green
  (Envy Labs), Mark Kendall (Envy Labs). Although Rails contains many web
  framework best practices, there are still plenty of ways to create horr
 ible code.  Fortunately, as the community has matured many new technique
 s have been discovered which can help keep Rails apps maintainable. In t
 his 5 part lab we will walk through the most common of these best practi
 ces and get some hands on experience refactoring Rails.

SUMMARY:SOLID Design Principles Behind The Rails 3 Refactoring
DESCRIPTION:Presented by José Valim (Plataforma Tec). A huge step forwar
 d in the third version of the Rails 3 framework is the modularity it pro
 vides. This modularity is the result of a long refactoring effort to mak
 e it easier to extend or modify Rails to suit our application's needs.

SUMMARY:Progressive Rendering And Full Page Caching
DESCRIPTION:Presented by George Ogata (Patch). One exciting feature slat
 ed for Rails 3.1 is the "flush": pushing pieces of the view out early, b
 efore the view has finished rendering. Learn how to use this effectively
  to minimize your perceived response times, how it influences the way yo
 u factor your application, and how it can complement other existing cach
 ing techniques, such as client-side personalization and edge side includ
 es.

SUMMARY:Why You Should Never Use An ORM
DESCRIPTION:Presented by John Nunemaker (OrderedList, Inc.). Having buil
 t two object mappers in Ruby (MongoMapper and ToyStore), I would like to
  throw out a crazy thought. What if, on your next project, you ditch the
  ORM.  No ActiveRecord. No DataMapper. No anything. Just you and a lower
  level driver, whispering sweet nothings into Ruby classes and modules. 
 Could you? Would you? DARE you?

SUMMARY:Beyond MVC -- DCI
DESCRIPTION:Presented by Mike Dietz (ThoughtWorks). MVC inventor Trygve 
 Reemskaug and James Coplien have a new vision for software, called DCI -
 - Data, Context, and Interaction.  Although as conceptually elegant as M
 VC, and with the same potential to improve software, DCI's innovations a
 re not easily implemented in Java or C#.  That is not the case with Ruby
 , however, which puts Rails developers in a unique position to lead the 
 way.

SUMMARY:Why Can't I Test My JavaScript?
DESCRIPTION:Presented by Greg Moeck (Strobe, Inc.). The Ruby/Rails commu
 nity is known for it's adoption of TDD,  yet that seems to stop at the b
 order that is our web browsers. The issue isn't testing tools, the brows
 er or the DOM. It's us. We write untestable JavaScript and our tests are
  yelling at us, begging us to change. Will we listen? Come and learn how
  we can push the Ruby testing philosophy into JavaScript, and impact the
  apps of the future.

SUMMARY:Building Rails Apps for the Rich Client
DESCRIPTION:Presented by Yehuda Katz (Strobe, Inc.). We all know that Ra
 ils is great for building traditional web applications that serve dynami
 c HTML pages. But more and more, people are reaching to other tools, lik
 e Node.js, when they build web applications with a lot of logic in the c
 lient. People often use the argument that when you remove the view helpe
 rs, there isn't much of value left in Rails.

SUMMARY:Bridging The Gap - Using JavaScript In Rails To Write DRY Rich C
 lient Applications
DESCRIPTION:Presented by Thorben Schröder (kopfmaschine), Andreas Haller
  (kopfmaschine). When we build rich client interfaces in JavaScript for 
 our Rails applications today, we have no other choice than duplicating c
 ode and logic in both worlds. In this presentation we will show you how 
 to use Google's V8 JavaScript engine in your Rails application to elimin
 ate those duplications, write model code only once and therefore make yo
 ur code DRY again.

SUMMARY:TMTOWTDI: Making Those Tough Toolkit Choices
DESCRIPTION:Presented by David A.  Black (Arcturo), Jeremy McAnally (Arc
 turo). This talk is a discussion of those tough decisions that Rails dev
 elopers (new and old) face each day.  What test framework should I use (
 and why should I care)?  Does my templating system really make it harder
  for my designer to work?  Is Bundler really essential?  Two veteran Rai
 ls developers will discuss the benefits and tradeoffs (and share their o
 wn toolkit choices).

SUMMARY:Building Pageless Apps with Rails and Backbone js
DESCRIPTION:Presented by Matt Kelly (ZURB). Make your users happy by bui
 lding webapps without page loads. People waiting 2,000ms or more for a p
 age on your app to load are losing interest and focus. Learn how easy it
  is to create an interface that responds in less then 100ms with Backbon
 e.js, a JavaScript library created to seamlessly integrate with Rails an
 d keep your JavaScript organized and readable.
